Twitter

For our next assignment we are required to make 10 Twitter pitches for our companies. My Company is CommunicAID, a non-profit organization that provides shelters and food banks for the homeless and those in poverty. I think this assignment is very important because Twitter has become one of the most popular social media outlets within the past few years. It is a great way to get information out to the public and it is free!! I have had a Twitter for about a year now and I absolutely love it! I have the Twitter application on my phone so I check it all the time.

My main source of news is Twitter. Occassionaly I'll read online news sites or watch the news on TV, but I follow news twitters for Oklahoma and larger ones. I find out so much from these tweets just by reading a 140 character status update. I also follow a lot of clothing stores and restaurants that I like. They tweet about specials and sales that they have, which is great stuff that I normally would never have known about.

Doing these Twitter pitches will be great for my company because it will be letting information out to people who are interested. They will be able to find out about different things such as our new location and the crisis my company was accused of. A lot of people are using Twitter now and it is becoming as popular as sites like Facebook and Myspace.

Twitter is amazing and I reccomend everyone get one!! You can follow me @jessieprater
